Phys.org / Landscape water velocities across Europe reshape nitrogen pollution risk under climate change
Nitrate pollution is a growing global environmental challenge due to the extensive use of fertilizer. A study published in Science, led by the Leibniz Institute of Freshwater Ecology and Inland Fisheries (IGB) with the Helmholtz ...
Phys.org / SpaceX lifts off in record Wall Street debut
Elon Musk's SpaceX began its first day as a public company on Wall Street on Friday after the biggest initial public offering in history, with the polarizing entrepreneur promising he will take humanity to Mars.
Phys.org / An underground detector in China unveils its first major findings about mysterious ghost particles
A massive underground detector aimed at understanding the mysterious ghost particles in our universe released its first major results on Wednesday.
Phys.org / Even weak ocean models can provide valuable information for environmental forecasts, study shows
Oxygen depletion in the western Baltic Sea is not uncommon. Oxygen-poor conditions regularly occur in deeper waters, placing stress on marine ecosystems and, in extreme cases, causing fish kills. As ocean temperatures continue ...
Tech Xplore / Porous electrode design could lift green hydrogen output by limiting bubble buildup
Hydrogen could be the key to a clean energy future, but a tiny problem has been holding it back: bubbles. In a paper published in Energy & Environmental Science, a multidisciplinary team of UNSW researchers, in collaboration ...
Tech Xplore / Food waste beads could boost direct air capture by 10% to 50%
In order to stabilize global warming at less than 1.5°C in the long term, there is a need not only for a drastic reduction in greenhouse gas emissions but also for technologies to remove and store hundreds of billions of ...
Medical Xpress / Traditional tertiary teaching models shortchanging neurodivergent students in health care studies
Recent Deakin research into the experiences of neurodivergent students studying for future health care careers showed many experience stigma, inadequate help in classroom and clinical settings, and hard-to-navigate support ...
Phys.org / Salmonella genomes reveal 45 previously unknown toxins in foodborne bacteria
Researchers at the University of São Paulo (USP) in Brazil have discovered 45 new toxins produced by Salmonella bacteria, some of which are associated with foodborne infections. The study was conducted at the Center for Research ...
Tech Xplore / Copper thin films reveal ballistic electron transport that could reshape future chip wiring
A joint research team has experimentally observed ballistic transport in single-crystalline copper thin films, demonstrating that ballistic transport is achievable in an industry-standard metal at interconnect-relevant dimensions. ...
Phys.org / Silver nanoparticles pave the way for precise DNA cutting and joining
DNA is composed of long chains that act as the blueprint for living organisms. In genetic engineering, scientists cut DNA at specific sites and join the resulting fragments to other DNA sequences, enabling applications such ...
Phys.org / Ocean glow meets 3D printing with living gels that sense mechanical force
The integration of biological organisms into synthetic structures offers a radical new pathway for developing intelligent, self-powered materials. Researchers have pioneered an innovative approach to biomanufacturing by using ...
Medical Xpress / Blood antibody levels could clarify long COVID prognosis and memory problems
Persistent symptoms after COVID-19 infection continue to affect millions of people worldwide, even as the number of acute infections has declined. Long COVID (LC) can cause fatigue, headaches, sleep disturbances, breathing ...
